Chapter 2, the gourd has ripened
This is the might of the sage
Nuwa has not reacted much, but Fuxi furrowed his brows: "I have deduced that there should be a gourd in this valley that is fated to be connected with you, sister, and there should be more than one gourd. However, could it be that my innate divination has gone awry?"
Moreover, what if it proves to be useful
The man is handsome and charming, while the woman is exceptionally beautiful
Xu Siyuan carefully stored the elixir, but after a moment of hesitation, he still did not choose to apprentice under Hongyun. Although Hongyun was a renowned disciple of the Dao Ancestor, he died too early, making such a support insufficiently substantial
That's it, that's it, it seems that I am fated to have no connection with Taiyi
After the three gourds were picked, all the leaves on the gourd vine fell off, leaving only the bare, lonely tendrils remaining in place
After all, Xu Siyuan is considered a descendant of Nuwa, and Xu Siyuan holds only respect for Nuwa
Xu Siyuan had only spoken halfway when he was interrupted by Taiyi. Taiyi looked at Xu Siyuan with some surprise and said: "You actually know who I am, which shows you have some wisdom. However, as a guardian spirit beast, you actually stood by and watched me take the treasure. If it weren't for your merit in guarding the gourd, I would have killed you long ago. Therefore, you need not say anything further; even if you do, I will not agree."
It is not surprising that Fuxi furrows his brow, for the foundation of Fuxi's great way lies in the innate divination. If the calculations are indeed erroneous, it would prove that there is a problem with Fuxi's path
Seeing her elder brother frown, Nuwa walked up to Xu Siyuan and主动开口问道: "Did this little snake grow up in this valley? Is there a gourd in the valley?"
Xu Siyuan knew that this person was Hong Yun
Suddenly, a pressure emanating from the soul swept across the primordial world, causing all beings in heaven and earth, countless lives, to kneel down in submission
Xu Siyuan slightly shook his head, which could be considered a gesture of greeting to Hongyun, and then stepped aside
At this moment, it seemed that Fuxi and the other person were in a good mood. Xu Siyuan handed the gourd vine to Nuwa and then spoke up:
Moreover, the pressure exerted on Xu Siyuan by these two individuals is no less than that from the previous three, needless to say, these two are Nuwa and Fuxi.
Moreover, Xu Siyuan's embodiment of the Devouring Python is perfectly suited to ally with Taiyi. Emperor Jun Taiyi established the demon clan, and Xu Siyuan can also be considered a member of the demon clan. The cultivation methods of the demon clan are extremely suitable for Xu Siyuan's practice
After all, it is possible that this gourd will ripen in the next moment
Although I did not witness the good fortune of the spiritual treasures that were abundant at the dawn of the world, the spiritual energy in the primordial universe is still exceedingly rich now. If luck were to favor me a bit more, perhaps there will be legends of me in the future primordial world
Tai Yi left decisively, and Xu Siyuan was rendered speechless: How could I dare to stop you? If I were to try and stop you, I would be down in no time.
Congratulations to the Honorable Hongjun Laozu on achieving the Dao
A few days later, Laozi arrived riding the green ox. Xu Siyuan still obediently bowed and then stepped aside. Seeing that there was only one gourd left, Laozi was somewhat surprised, but he still picked that one gourd.
"There are only three gourds?" Fuxi walked over, stared at Xu Siyuan for a while, and then said with a smile, "Sister, I believe I know the reason now. Originally, it was destined that there would be seven gourds in this valley, but this little snake is an unexpected variable."
"Elder brother, I sense that my opportunity is nearby, yet until now, I am still unclear about what this opportunity truly is," Nuwa said as she looked around.
Moreover, from this point onward, Hongjun became the Dao, and the Great Dao is above; no one can refrain from paying their respects.
After all, when the sage aligns with the Dao, the whole world rejoices
The practice of cultivation is not simple; the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is both pure and impure. Just distinguishing the attributes of various types of spiritual energy has consumed a significant amount of Xu Siyuan's time. Moreover, the enormous body of the Sky-Devouring Python contains countless meridians, and Xu Siyuan has yet to find the optimal pathways for the flow of spiritual energy within these meridians
I can calculate the constants of this world, yet I cannot fathom the variables of this world. It is not that my way is incorrect, but rather that my way is insufficiently refined
Fuxi comforted, "The great way is long and winding, do not rush for the day or night. Do not be anxious for now; I have deduced that there are treasures emerging in this valley, and these treasures are destined for you. Let us first retrieve those treasures before discussing further."
Xu Siyuan is also helpless, and even dares not say that I am petty, at most just thinks about it in his heart
Xu Siyuan desires the gourd root not because he finds it useful, but because the gourd vine is also meant for Nüwa. Having guarded it for so long without gaining anything, he feels a deep sense of dissatisfaction. At the very least, possessing a gourd root can serve as a consolation for himself
In the primordial chaos, time is not recorded, and in the blink of an eye, several hundred years have passed
Who says that deep affection is not as valuable as long-term companionship? In the face of strength, companionship is insignificant
As Xu Siyuan was contemplating, Taiyi took down the gourd and sighed: "What a treasure, truly a treasure, but what a pity! Such a pity!"
Laozi paused and looked at Xu Siyuan, saying: "It is evident that your determination to seek the Dao is strong, but I prefer tranquility. I already have a disciple under my tutelage, and it seems that we are destined to have no master-disciple connection. As for a Daoist boy, my second brother does not favor the demon race, and my Daoist boy must at the very least be a congenital spirit. We are fated to be without connection."
As a time traveler, the requirements for thighs are quite high
Not long after Tai Yi left, a man dressed in red arrived. This person exuded a carefree demeanor and had a friendly expression.
"Small? In what way am I small? I am over a hundred zhang long, and I am a python, a python!"
At this moment, Xu Siyuan had already guessed the identity of this person; he should be Taiyi, who wields the innate supreme treasure, the Eastern Emperor Bell. Xu Siyuan hesitated about whether to approach Taiyi to become his disciple. Although the demon race is destined to decline, many of them survived after the War of the Witches and Demons.
However, there are no good cultivation methods available. For countless millennia, the Sky-Devouring Python has relied on its instincts to absorb and expel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, while Xu Siyuan has spent hundreds of years without being able to deduce a cultivation method suitable for himself
Xu Siyuan did not know what Taiyi was lamenting, but in the end, Xu Siyuan still spoke up: "Great God Taiyi, I am but a little demon."
It is strange that Xu Siyuan waited for several hundred years without seeing the gourd mature, yet as soon as this man arrived, the leaves on the mouth of the purple and white gourd began to wither, indicating that the gourd had indeed ripened
Although the little snake is inherently dull-witted, it possesses a heart that yearns for the Way. It wishes to take the two of you as its masters, seeking longevity and the pursuit of the Great Way. I kindly ask the two of you to accept me as your disciple. The little snake assures you that it will certainly honor its teachers and respect the Way, dedicating itself to the quest for knowledge. I earnestly request that you accept me as your disciple
Xu Siyuan was almost collapsed on the ground, and it took a long time for him to regain his senses
Xu Siyuan quietly stood by the gourd vine, not daring to step away even a single pace
Nüwa and her companion walked into the valley, but there were no treasures to be found in this valley, only a python respectfully gazing at them
Several hundred years have passed again, and the natural barrier of this valley has unexpectedly opened a breach, through which a man descends from the sky
Hongjun has just attained the Dao, indicating that Nuwa and others have not yet become saints, so my crossing over to the Primordial Era is not too late
The man did not even glance at Xu Siyuan and directly stepped forward to pluck the purple and white gourd.
"You are quite clever," Hongyun said with a smile after picking the gourd. "It must have been difficult for you to guard this gourd for countless years. I can see that your spirit is weak and your body seems somewhat out of harmony. Here, I have a bottle of Soul Nourishing Pills to give to you."
When the red clouds arrive, the purplish-red gourds are also ripe
All beings rejoice together, at this moment celestial dew descends, and the earth erupts with spiritual springs, with countless individuals making significant progress in their cultivation today
Great Immortal, I humbly seek the Dao with a sincere heart. Today, witnessing your extraordinary demeanor, transcending the five elements and detached from the mundane world, truly inspires my admiration. I earnestly request that you accept me as your disciple, even if it means serving as a young acolyte to fetch tea and water. I assure you that I will diligently uphold my duties and devote myself wholeheartedly.
It seems that creating a cultivation method on my own is unreliable; in the future, I must find a master. But who should I look for, and who would be willing to take me in?
However, Xu Siyuan feels more curiosity towards Nüwa and does not harbor any romantic feelings for her
Three gourds are gone, and the roots of this gourd vine have nearly withered away
Even if endless years pass, only Xu Siyuan and this sky-devouring python accompany this gourd
The man wears a crown, his clothing adorned with the sun, moon, and stars on the sleeves. His countenance is resolute, and an unfathomable aura surrounds him
Several hundred years have passed, and Xu Siyuan has only managed to stabilize his cultivation at the initial stage of the Golden Immortal realm. This is not due to Xu Siyuan's lack of effort; as a transmigrator, he naturally understands that cultivation is fundamental, and Xu Siyuan has been diligently practicing.
Hong Yun at least gave himself a pot of elixir, but I just left like that
Fuxi's words were incomprehensible to Xu Siyuan, who quietly observed Nuwa. Nuwa was truly extraordinarily beautiful, embodying nobility intertwined with elegance, purity mingled with charm, and every frown and smile exuded boundless allure
I am leaving just like this
Only the last gourd remains now, and Xu Siyuan has come to realize that this gourd possesses a spirit and chooses its own master. However, it is evident that none of these three gourds have taken a liking to Xu Siyuan
This is indeed a sage, truly remarkable! Although Xu Siyuan has absorbed the remnants of the consciousness of the Devouring Python, his soul remains too weak, at most equivalent to the Celestial Immortal level, thus the shock brought to Xu Siyuan by Hongjun is overwhelmingly strong
Xu Siyuan roared wildly in his heart, but when he spoke, he said respectfully: "Yes, I have grown up in this valley, and the three gourds in this valley have already been picked by several deities."
As Xu Siyuan was deep in thought, a voice resonated through the vast wilderness: "I am Hongjun, and today I shall unite with the Dao"
Thinking of this, Xu Siyuan hurriedly went to check on the condition of the three small gourds. Initially, these three gourds were radiant with divine light, but now they had gradually become plain and unadorned. Xu Siyuan estimated that in a few hundred years at most, these gourds would mature.
Xu Siyuan did not have to wait long; a few days later, two individuals arrived outside the valley.
Xu Siyuan stepped forward to use his tail to remove the vine, and after a moment's thought, he also dug out the roots of the innate gourd vine
